    1. Stockport Hatter
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Raph

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Decent chance of starting

    3. Sᴄʜᴜ̈RRʟᴇ ⓝ
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      He’ll start

    4. smash
      • 14 Years

      Ralph might not play GW8 I keep seeing

      1. FPL_Crisis
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        this is what's causing me to not go Gray to Raph

  2. Futureform
    • 3 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Ronaldo captaining - is the early kick off putting you off?!!

    1. GE
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No

    2. Puntillimon
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Has put me off indeed

      1. Futureform
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        What are you doing instead?!

    3. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      No, last week has trained me

      1. Futureform
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        What happened last week?

        1. Holmes
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          He blanked in an early kickoff

        2. Futureform
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 5 months ago

          Ah, so you ARE put off?

    4. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      If I had Fernandes I'd be tempted to captain him, had a good record in 12.30 KO last season and as well against Everton

    5. Gabbiadini
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Talk he doesn't play 90 but who would Ole be resting him for, Portugal?

      1. Futureform
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Do you mean doesn't start?!!

    6. N1ceguyEdd1e
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Nope, locked on (C) Ronnie here for me

    7. TomSaints
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 5 months ago

      Absolutely. 9 blank captains in early kick off out of 12 in past 3 seasons

      It’s cursed!

      1. Futureform
        • 3 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        That's my thinking. Plus if they do well you still have the hope of another chance.

      2. Don Van Vliet
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 5 months ago

        Superstition is for the lily-livered.

  3. Hypnos
    • 9 Years

    • 12 Years
    2 years, 5 months ago

    Shaw ➡ Rudiger for -4?
    Bench order correct?:
